Who would win in a war: The City of Zurich or the Roman Empire?

[AccruedExpenditure]

Let?s just say Zurich in 2006 for whatever reason was transported back to the days when the Roman Empire was at its height.

Would the modern weapons in Zurich be enough to protect it from falling under the influence and rule of the roman empire?

They'd stay neutral...

somebody posted a very similar or same question 2-3 months ago except it was Madrid instead of Zurich

I'm pretty sure swords and shields will only be able to repel grenades and missiles for so long.

umm.. the romans would just starve them to death, wait a couple months and with no water/food supply they r gone. But this comparison is absurd nevertheless..

 

[SpanishFry]

did you think of this question while stoned?

Modern army > roman hordes

You can't throw a spear at a ****** tank

he didnt say entire nation vs romans he said just the city.. Unlikely they have a lot of tanks, and if they did of course they would run out of fuel pretty soon..
